RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: PICK UP ELVIS (13) has been impressive winning since resuming and despite the second row draw and meeting stronger opposition, expect a big showing. Both KALKADOON DREAMING (5) and MAXBECA (2) have ability and will appreciate the front line draw over the sprint trip and should be right in the finish. AMERICAN ALLI (6) SOHO PLAYGIRL (8) OUR PRINCESS DI (11) and AMERICAN SQUARED (7) are all racing well and with suitable trips can threaten and cannot be dismissed. BIGGERBETTERBEST (3) OPTIMAL (9) OUTBACK QUEENIE (10) SPORTS NARRATOR (12) and STANDANDDELIVER (1) are first four chances. EARLY SPEED: 2,5 RATINGS: 13/ 5/ 2/ 6/ 8/ 11/ 7/ 3/ 9/ 10/ 12/ 1
